Routes start on the Monsal Trail and follow the River Derwent, with views across the Chatsworth House estate and passages through the village of Edensor. The course includes rolling countryside, a notable descent followed by a short climb into Manners Wood, and clearly signed sections marked with pink arrows and tape.
Entries include chip timing, a high quality finisher medal, a finisher goodie and drink, and a personalised certificate. On-course support comprises refillable water stations, on-course refreshments, first aid cover, marshals and event photography. The event village provides toilets before the race and a bag drop service is available. Parking is available at local car parks adjacent to the venue; charges may apply.
